5 out of 5 stars This is great.......2004-06-04

I just got this CD the other day and I am buying a couple for gifts.

I haven't stopped listening to it since I got it. The arrangements stay true to the original arrangements and the music is fresh and exciting to listen to.

I think this CD is great and will make great gifts for my friends who like Janet Jackson.

1 out of 5 stars An insult to Janet-loving audiophiles........2004-06-02

Given the lofty title of this recording and the other reviews of it on Amazon.com, I had rather high hopes for this purchase. Now I'm just hoping there's a used CD store in town that will take this sophomoric rubbish.

As the credits on this CD indicate (warn?), this so-called "string quartet" is actually just TWO people: one playing a real violin and the other playing a SAMPLER with some string sounds, drums, and a few miscellaneous synthesizers in a half-assed attempt to make these songs sound vaguely like the real McCoys. Anyone who knows so little about chamber music as to mistake the strings and drums (other than the lead violin) for real instruments and not the sequenced electronic imitations that they are is probably not an appropriate audience for a seemingly high-brow musical concept that one would expect a "string quartet" to be in the first place. In other words, whether you have trouble comprehending the intellectual complexity of a Britney Spears song or you have an advanced degree in musicology, I can't imagine that you'd want to waste your time and money on such a CD.

And if you're thinking about buying it for a good laugh, unfortunately, while this trash is cheesy, it's not bad enough to stretch into campy. Think of it as William Hung after a year of voice lessons. Still awful, but no longer laughable.

Think of it as a tribute to Janet Jackson when you decide to pass on buying such a poorly conceived knock-off. Or let me know if you'd want to buy it from me for a big discount! Just remember that I won't accept a return...no matter how badly you want to give this "earlobe malfunction" back. You can't say I didn't warn you. CJF

5 out of 5 stars Open The Flood Gates!.......2004-04-28

I am gushing!!!

This is the most fabulous CD that you can get! First off it's Damita Jo songs which everyone just loves.... But then they are performed with violins and orchestras... It's Grace meets Will with a passion for life!!!

If you have a special event or a romantic rendevous with someone this music will tantilize your senses and make everyone know that you have A1 class!!!

5 out of 5 stars So Awesome! So Janet!.......2004-04-01

OMG!!!

The first String Quartet Tribute I got was Nickelback and I sooooo loved it!!!

I just got this CD today and it is unbelievable!!! Janet MUST have had something to do with making of it because it is SOOOOOO Janet!

My favs are Control, Love Will Never Do Without You, Rhythm Nation, Escapade, Everytime and Pleasure Principle.

The production is amazing! It has drums and bass with a string quartet and it grooves like the original renditions of all the songs.

Rhythm Nation reminded me of the superbowl performance cause it has marching drums in it just like her performance did......KickIt!!!

I'm buying two copies right now for my two best friends who are huge JJ fans like me... I know they'll love it too!!!
